Couldn’t fault the service and actual repair by this garage. I applied for and was contacted out of hours with a quote which I thought was great. As promised my car was collected the following morning, the clutch replaced and my car delivered back to me that same day. Perfect service, repair and price. Will deffo recommend and use again.

What is a 'Full Service' on a car?

Servicing your car on a regular basis is vital to ensuring your car is reliable, performant and fuel efficient as much as possible, in order to help protect its resale value. Undertaking a ‘Full Service’ on your car involves checking thoroughly the fluids and components in the vehicle, to determine these need either replacing, updating, or replenishing. Getting your car serviced will also help prevent larger jobs needing to be undertaken later on, hence most likely helping you save you a lot of hassle and money.

Many garages won't differentiate between a Full and a Major Service. Where they do, the Major Service is even more comprehensive and may include items such as a full drain and renewal of brake fluid and of the cooling system's coolant.

A Full Service with our garages will typically cost between £150 and £200. If you have a car with 6 cylinders, it may be a little higher.

To help you understand more about car servicing for your car, we have the produced the following guide to help you understand the subject in greater detail.

A car service is essentially a check carried out by a mechanic who analyses the essential systems in your car.

They will be looking to make sure the vehicle is safe to drive on the road which is why it is a legal requirement to have you Fiat serviced every twelve months.

A car service is NOT an MOT, even though many of the same parts and systems will be inspected during each.

The difference between an MOT and car service is that an MOT is a standardised check with specific rules and regulations set by the government.

A car service is carried out and fully controlled by the mechanic or garage carrying the work out.

This means that the pricing will change from garage to garage alone as well as from car to car, much like any other repair work.

There are two different types of car service, the interim car service and full car service.

As each service will change from garage to garage, they will carry out different checks and look at different parts.

Therefore it is vital that you are able to talk to more than one garage before you have the job completed. You need to be able to compare price and how thorough the checks will be.

Fortunately you are in the perfect place!

All you have to do is enter the details of your car in the form below and then sit back and relax while local garages send you direct quotes for a full or interim service.

Below you will see what most garages will check during a service however it is always worth checking before you book your car in as some garages may not cover what is listed.

Here are the parts and systems checks as part of most interim car services and full car services;

Full and Interim Car Service

Oil and Oil Filter Replacement

Brake Fluid

Anti-freeze Coolant

Windscreen Wash

Power Steering Fluid

Lights

Windscreen Wipers

Battery Condition

Charging System

Exhaust System

Tyre Tread and Pressure

Full Brake Check

Steering Check

Shock Absorbers Check

Suspension Check

Full car service (Includes all of the above and the following)

Auxiliary Drive Belt Check

Wheel Alignment Check

Wheel Bearing Check

Wheel Balance

Brake Fluid Condition

Fuel Filter (Diesel)

Spark Plugs (Petrol)

Air Filter

Most of these parts and systems should be checked during a full car service or interim service, furthermore, if you require a top up of motor oil or any other repairs, you will have to pay an extra charge as a result.

A car service is essentially a full diagnostic to find out about the health of a car, it is not a service where specific repairs are included.

That is why it can help to have interim checks six months before a full service, if there is a minor problem, the interim check would find it and you will be able to resolve the issue before it gets any worse.

However if you do not have an interim check and you have an issue, it will only get worse meaning you will have to pay more money when it is eventually discovered in the full car service.
